# Setup Guide

#### Step 1: Update and install necessary packages

```bash
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade --yes && \
sudo apt install git build-essential ufw curl jq snapd screen ncdu nano fuse ufw --yes
```

#### Step 2: Install Go

```bash
sudo snap install go --classic && \
echo 'export GOPATH="$HOME/go"' >> ~/.profile && \
echo 'export GOBIN="$GOPATH/bin"' >> ~/.profile && \
echo 'export PATH="$GOBIN:$PATH"' >> ~/.profile && \
source ~/.profile && \
go version
```

#### Step 3: Clone the repository and compile binary

```bash
git clone https://github.com/AssetMantle/node.git
cd node
git checkout tags/v0.3.0
make install
```

#### Step 4: Init your keys and download genesis file

```bash
mantleNode init <moniker> --chain-id mantle-1
mantleNode keys add <keyname>
curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/AssetMantle/genesisTransactions/main/mantle-1/final_genesis.json > $HOME/.mantleNode/config/genesis.json
```

#### Step 5: Set up AssetMantle system service

```bash
sudo tee /etc/systemd/system/assetmantle.service > /dev/null <<EOF
[Unit]
Description=AssetMantleNode Service
Requires=network-online.target
After=network-online.target

[Service]
User=root
Restart=on-failure
RestartSec=3
MemoryDenyWriteExecute=yes
LimitNOFILE=65535
ExecStart=/root/go/bin/mantleNode start --x-crisis-skip-assert-invariants

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
EOF
```

#### Step 6: Enable AssetMantle daemon

```bash
sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl enable assetmantle
```

### If you want to synchronize your node from the 0 block:

#### Start AssetMantle service and watch logs

```bash
sudo systemctl start assetmantle
journalctl -u assetmantle -f -o cat
```

Or you can quickly synchronize your node through State Sync:

{% endcontent-ref %}

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://services.anyvalid.com/archive/assetmantle/setup-guide.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
